Engraving ON Glass.

The hard point for inscribing and en-
craving rare stones is doubtless older
than the lathe, and was certainly used
in engraving glass during classical and
medieval times The Flemish, Dutch
and Germans, within the last three cen
turtles, used it with great success, as tes-
titled by examples of their work still re-
naming Diamond or other hard stone
points-or steel points similar to those
used by some glass carvers of the present
may be employed in engraving glass
and handled in the same way as ordin-
airy gravers for metal or wood. The
glass should be coated with a mixture
of gum and milk, on which, when dry,
pattern may be drawn or transferred
previous to engraving. Very fine line
and Matching and stipple effects can be
produced by this method.
Some of the specimens in the Slade
collection of the British museum are ex-
quisitely done. The great drawback to
such engraving, when delieately finished,
is that it cannot be we'll seen unless it is
held close to the eye and in a good light.

agents will take small cash payment
and arrange the remainder of the debt

as low as 5per cent Certain lot holders
have very great advantage. Scat

very large number of little plots of ground
which belong to the public reservations.
These bits of parking are given rent
free to the lot-owners, who build up
close to them. They have the practical
use of them for nothing They can fence
them in, ornament them as they please,
and enjoy everything about them except
building on them. In many instances
these little public strips are the only

Unstable FRIENDSHIPS,

Practically, we are all human, and
humanity is not philosophical. With by
far the vast majority of mankind a just
and discriminate estimate of our fellow
men is wholly out of the question With
the mass of people friendship to exist at
all, must be stimulated by more or less
idealizing of the friend The day when
the average man realizes that his chosen
companion is not to some extent an ex-
ceptional being marks the beginning of
the decay of his affection. Boston

Oatmeal for the Brain

Recent analysis shows that the fatty
substance of the brain is not, as was
supposed, composed of glycerine, but of
palmatin, an element of which oatmeal
contains large percentage, and which
is therefore a better cerebral nutriment
than wheat neal Chicago Times.

there are sc, 900, 900 of barrels of -four
consumed in this country each year, ard
say that there are 10, 600, 600 of people
